Welcome Chervil...you're going to be a great addition to the garden My dad as born in Telford...



Acc...if you could choose to go anywhere in the world on holiday...where would you go ? and why...sorry to get serious, but I'm curious.:yh_questn

I assure you there is no Shroppenshire ! Now lets get some straight answers here cause we have ways of dealing with false location claims.

come on acc lm dying to know!!

hey nomad, wanna let me chase you round a table!!!:rolleyes:

Cheers bez, living not far from Telford. Not from here originally I was born and bred in wiltshire down south. Been here bout 10 years and love it. Even getting a bit of midland accent, sounds very strange with my wiltshire twang!

(at least the cover story us space invaders are using at the mo):sneaky:

if you could change one thing in history what would it be?:p
My first impulse would be changing the historic moment of starting this thread. :wah:



Okay, a little seriousness, but just a little. My mother died. Had she not died, I would not have graduated high school in foster care, which allowed me to go to college (or at least start college). That allowed me to meet a man I never would have met otherwise, who convinced me to join the Air Force. Had I not joined the Air Force, I never would have gone to Okinawa to meet my beloved. Every experience, good and bad brought me here - the same place that your good and bad experiences brought you. And here we've met and become friends. Why on earth would I want to screw that up?

You get serious about holidays?? For me, someplace of natural beauty. Architecture & history is okay, but for me ... I think someplace deep in the South American Jungle. Not the Rainforest because it's too fragile. It's the jungle for me!

Absolutely! We tried a change-up but who is the best first baseman around.

Nomad wrote: accountable, if you had to sum living up in a few sentences, how would you describe it ? Vividly.



Nomad wrote: What are a couple of your most valuable lessons ?
I never actually had them appraised, but the lesson plan I wrote on Situational Leadership (developed by Ken Blanchard) is alot of fun, and I've been told that my guided discussion on valuing others' values can be life-changing.

If you were to wake up in Chiang Mai Thailand, what would you do ?

Find out what the exchange rate is. I'd love to get some authentic peanut curry. MMMmmmmm.

Crunchy or smooth ?

Ribs or whale blubber ?

Jumping out of a plane with...or without a parachute ?

What ????are we talking to ACC or superman....or have you just 'fallen out' (excuse the pun) :yh_rotfl

Nomad wrote: Crunchy or smooth ?
Smooth. Crunchy just smothers the natural chicken flavor.

Did you make your trip to Dallas? If so, how did it go? (I'm probably on the wrong thread for this. If so, apologies...:-5 )

In the air or on the ground?

It's a question, isn't it?



It went very well. We just explored the area around the workplace (assuming I get the job). Beautiful weather. Very friendly people. Clean neighborhoods nearby. Lots and lots of shopping, including Asian grocers (big plus!).



The only negative was the super-complicated highway system all around, but I'm generally pretty good at mazes.



All-in-all, I could work there if they begged me.

They'd be MAD if they let you slip through their fingers !;)

I'm glad you liked the area! Maybe it's a good omen. I'll keep my fingers and toes crossed for ya.

Thanks, ladies. All this love is, of course, the main reason I keep coming here. :driving:

OMG, I know a Scotsman...have a pic of him in his kilt also...hot stuff, that's all...

are you a big pokeyman(sp?) fan? if so which one is your favorite?

ROFLMAO - sorry for the punny

TenneseeGirl wrote: are you a big pokeyman(sp?) fan? if so which one is your favorite?
that spelling is because I'm wearing a skirt, isn't it? Well, it's a kilt and it's quite - um - ventilating.



I'm ambivalent about pokeman. I picked that particular avatar because it had the most action. Now it's how everybody recognizes me, so I keep it. Once I get a job I'll become a paying member and then I'll use a pic of Andy Griffith as Andy Taylor (it was a gift from a dear friend).

Andy Taylor, huh? That should be cool!

*whistling that song to myself from the theme*

If you were walking through the woods and a grizzly bear attacked you and started eating your head would you be able to lie there and play dead like your supposed to or would you just freak out and flail your arms and legs about making a spectacle of yourself ?



Also do you enjoy split pea soup ?

I think I might thrash around in initial panic, but after a minute or two I'd be able to lie as still as the dead. :-2



I'd probably like split pea soup if it tried it. If I would just give it a chance. Maybe one bite and I'd change my mind. What do I say?

Split pea soup is a wonderful thing !





If you could only have one cd what would it be ?





Also once in a blue moon my eye will start twitching and I feel like a freak, what the hell is that ?

I got this one, Acc....

Mariah Carey's first CD was the first that came to mind. That must be the one.



My eye does that too. I have alot of muscle spasms like that. Freaks me out sometimes as well. :-3

Should we lift the Cuban embargo ?





Also when you start twitching and getting freaked out do you ever think "I hope I dont look like Marty Feldman right now ?"

If you could be tree what kind of tree would you be ?



Also on my mind...How many species of fish can be found in the Agean Sea ?

So did you get that fabulous new job?

Nomad wrote: If you could be tree what kind of tree would you be ?

If my fate is to be a tree

I see me to be a chi chi tree

Tall and straight and strong you see?

And full of the fruit, the sweet chi chi.



And what is this fruit, the sweet chi chi,

So large and juicy, swinging free?

You can only find it when asleep, you see?

For fiction is the chi chi tree.









Oh, and 4328, approximately. :rolleyes:

well ok then

If you wrote a book, what kind would it be, mystery novel, love story, historical, science fiction, travel, biography or something else ?

If you could be a dinasaur which one would you be ?





Also I was wondering if youve ever been to Igarka Siberia ? If so could you tell us about it please ?





Also whats the longest book youve ever read please ?

You are able to jump 25 years into the future and ask your children any one question, then return to the present time with the answer. What question do you ask?

Bez wrote: If you wrote a book, what kind would it be, mystery novel, love story, historical, science fiction, travel, biography or something else ?
A collection of short stories. I like my ADD. :p

Nomad wrote: If you could be a dinasaur which one would you be ?
Probably the little chattery irritating ones that roamed in packs and laughed at the lumbering T-Rexes as they made pitiful efforts of catching one of us.

I forget the name.





Nomad wrote: Also I was wondering if youve ever been to Igarka Siberia ? If so could you tell us about it please ?
Um, no. to both.



Nomad wrote: Also whats the longest book youve ever read please ?
I used to read fantasy novels alot when I drove bus. Not much effort in driving a bus; you only need one eye. Kidding. There was alot of waiting time. Most of the books were 300-500 pages.

What did I do 25 years ago that really pissed you off?

This is uncanny ! You have ADD ?

You drove a bus ? A school bus ?
